(88,695 posts)plow through them, ignore them outright, and get the job done OURSELVES. Theyre not gonna help OR cooperate and we shouldnt even bother with them. Lets not waste another minute trying to coax, cajole, bargain, negotiate, whatever you might call it. NOPE. Too late. Weve done that already. It gained us nothing. Give Susan Collins every cave-in she wants and shell still say no. Same for Lisa Murkowski most of the time.
Been there/done that and it gained us mostly nothing. I think its REALLY time to face the facts and move on without this ball n chain brigade.
We should stop repeatedly knocking on a door thats been glued shut and then abandoned before the glue was even dry. Lets push our Dems to go it alone and get as much accomplished as possible on our own. Well just have that much more good stuff to brag about, AND to remind voters what we were able to do for them, by the time the next elections are happening.
Fuck the GOP. We dont need em to help get America back on its feet. And they can whine all they want, but its time we helped everybody realize that Republicans DONT want to help you.
Heck, they dont want to help ANYBODY! Except for their own selfish, greedy, short-sighted, mercenary little selves. The PEOPLE, however - the VOTERS put there, THEY are with us. And theyre from both parties. Voters want these accomplishments delivered, and that includes Republican voters.
Screw the politicians. Weve got the people.
